SALEM, Ore. (May 31, 2013) -- Maj. Gen. Raymond F. Rees, The Adjutant General, Oregon, has appointed David Ferre as Deputy Director of the Oregon Military Department upon the retirement of long-serving Deputy Director Mike Caldwell, effective July 1.

The deputy director authorities include direct oversight of all the Oregon Military Department's state responsibilities, which consists not only of fiscal, state personnel, and military installations, but also the Oregon Youth Challenge and the Office of Emergency Management.

Dave Ferre has more than 30 years of collective experience as a state employee beginning as an Oregon State Trooper in 1976. Since that time, he has held various positions in state government to include acting Oregon Military Department (OMD) State Personnel director, OMD State Financial manager/comptroller, and OMD Installations director before obtaining his current assignment as director of Service Member and Family Support.

To complement his long state service, Ferre has had a successful parallel military career. He served as a commissioned officer in the U.S. Air Force, beginning in 1975. He transferred to the Air Reserve in 1976, and joined the Oregon Air National Guard in 1981. Ferre served as a weapons controller and disaster preparedness officer, and eventually as director of operations and the unit commander for the 104th Air Control Squadron.

After serving a number of command positions throughout the Oregon Air National Guard, to include the plans and programs officer, executive officer for the 142nd Fighter Wing, and 142nd Mission Support Group commander, he was appointed as the Oregon Combat Operations Group commander. In August 2005, Ferre was appointed the United States Property and Fiscal Officer for Oregon (appointed by the Chief of National Guard Bureau). He retired as a colonel in December 2011.

Ferre holds a Bachelor of Science in resource management and has also completed several advanced military courses including; Defense Regional Inter-service Support, Planning, Programming, Budget, and Execution, Federal Appropriation Law, Mission Focused Contracting, Government Contract Law and the Logistics Management Development Course.

"Colonel Dave Ferre comes to this position well-poised and with a vast amount of interagency experience," said Maj. Gen. Raymond F. Rees. "He is a leader of exceptional integrity. We look forward to his contributions."

Rees also praised the years of contributions of Mike Caldwell.

"Brigadier General Caldwell has dedicated his heart and soul to the success of this agency," Rees said. "We cannot thank him enough for his countless contributions. We wish him well in his retirement."

Brig. Gen. Caldwell, a La Grande, Ore., native, served more than 40 years as part of the Oregon Military Department, and was an advocate for military and veterans in the Oregon legislature as well as with the U.S. Congress in Washington, D.C. He also previously served as Union County Commissioner.

Caldwell held many military positions throughout his career to include State Public Affairs Officer, the commander of the 3 Battalion, 116 Cavalry, based in La Grande, before taking the position of deputy director at the Oregon Military Department.

Brig. Gen. Caldwell is on medical leave but when possible will work with Ferre to assure there is continuity and consistency in the transition.

Yesterday, Wednesday May 29, at about 3:30 PM, Lake Oswego Police received a report of a male subject who tried to lure a 14 year old boy into his vehicle. This had occurred about an hour before it was reported, in the area of 9th Street and C Avenue, while the young boy was walking home from school.

On May 31st, hundreds of students will pack the stands at Westview High School for what school administrators are calling an "assembly". Shortly after 9:00 am, the energetic buzz generated by the students is anticipated to give way to stunned silence as they watch the following scenario unfold before them.

Tarps are uncovered to reveal two wrecked cars on the high school's football field. Multiple students are "injured" and one person is "dead" on the hood of one of the vehicles. "Bystanders" call 9-1-1, the "deceased" student's parents happen to drive by and arrive to find their child dead, and sirens are heard in the distance. Within minutes firefighters from Tualatin Valley Fire & Rescue (TVF&R) arrive to care for injured patients and extricate victims, along with Washington County Sheriff's officers, LifeFlight, Metro West Ambulance, and a representative from the Medical Examiner's Office. Following the "investigation", one teen is arrested for manslaughter and DUII.

These live demonstrations known as S.K.I.D. (Stop Kids Impaired Driving) are both impactful and emotional as students witness firsthand the deadly consequences that can result from driving while impaired and texting while driving. And that is exactly what first responders hope for with each demonstration - that teenagers who often have a sense of invincibility and immortality will take what they experience to heart and make safe choices behind the wheel. View a simulation of a deadly car crash at TVF&R's YouTube site at: Youtube.com/user/tualatinvalleyfire.

Motor vehicle crashes are the leading cause of death for U.S. teens. The sad truth is that people die in automobile accidents every day; however, teenage drivers ages 16 - 19 die at a rate three times higher than drivers age 20 and older.

"As first responders, we have to keep warning teenagers about impaired driving and show them how the choices they make as young people can affect the rest of their lives," said TVF&R firefighter Jesse Fitzpatrick, who coordinated the event with the Westview student body leadership. "S.K.I.D. presents an opportunity to sit students down for a candid talk, tell them that we care about them, and that we want them to come home safely every day."

On May 29th, first responders received a boost for their efforts in the form of a $6,000 donation from Tigard's Landmark Ford dealership and the National Automobile Dealers Charitable Foundation. The donation was presented by President Jim Corliss to the Tualatin Valley Fire & Rescue Board of Directors last Tuesday night.

Firefighters were dispatched to a house fire (1530 SW Skyline Blvd.) at 7:48 AM this morning. Portland Fire Station 16 arrived to a "fully engulfed" garage fire. Engines 4 and 15, along with Truck 3 were on the initial dispatch. Firefighters were able to contain and extinguish the fire, and verify that everyone was out of the house. The cause of the fire was an overheated electrical device and a damage estimate is forthcoming. No one was injured during the incident.

The following tips can help prevent garage fires and their spread:

*If the garage allows access to the attic, make sure a hatch covers this access.
*The floor should be clear of clutter. Loose papers, matches, oily rags, and other potentially flammable items are extremely dangerous if they are strewn about the garage floor.
*Use light bulbs with the proper wattage, and do not overload electrical outlets.
*Tape down all cords and wires so they are not twisted or accidentally yanked.

The Plastic Effect: How Plastic Pollution Is Changing the Ocean Ecosystem with Emelia
DeForce, Ph.D., research associate at Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution
In the last half century, an untold amount of plastic has made its way from our hands into our oceans, affecting the ocean ecosystem from microscopic organisms that grow on the plastic to fish that ingest the plastic mistaking it for food. To seek out some answers to the questions about plastic pollution in our oceans, Dr. DeForce participated in two 6-week research expeditions operated by Sea Education Association. She will tell a story about what we currently know, what scientists are working on, and what we should be aware of about the problem for the future.

Heart of Steel: The Quest to Engineer the Heart with Jacob Abraham, M.D., medical director of the Center for Advanced Heart Disease, Providence St. Vincent Medical Center
In 1982, a Seattle dentist made medical history when he survived 112 days in the hospital after doctors replaced his entire heart with a mechanical heart pump made of steel. In the ensuing decades, thousands of patients with heart failure have undergone surgery to insert various machines to assist their weakened hearts. Such heart assist devices have now become a mainstream treatment option. In this talk, Dr. Abraham will examine the amazing organ that is the native heart; the extremes of cardiac function (fitness and failure); and the attempts of modern medicine to re-engineer this sublime engine.

author of Inventors At Work
From Steve Wozniak to Tim Leatherman, scientists, engineers, wild-eyed geniuses and amateur technologists have dedicated their lives to the pursuit of that singular "Eureka!" moment in their laboratories or garages. Their products have become famous, but what was their process of invention? This talk will offer insights into the nature of creativity and intuition, the skill-set needed and the force, motivation and obsession that must be summoned to spend endless hours searching for an answer to a question that no one else has asked or solving a problem most think has no solution. Speaker Brett Stern is an industrial designer and inventor living in Portland. His book, Inventors At Work is a collection of 23 interviews with inventors of famous products, innovations and technologies that have made life easier or changed the way we live.

Nasty, Brutish and Short: The Lives (and Deaths) of Star Clusters in the Milky Way with
Kevin Covey, Ph.D., assistant astronomer at Lowell Observatory
Most stars and planets form within young star clusters, but these clusters are some of the most
fragile features of the night sky and most are destroyed shortly after they form. In this talk,
astronomer Kevin Covey will explain how star clusters form, and identify the leading suspects for
causing their untimely demise. Kevin will describe a 'forensic study' he and his colleagues are
conducting of two young clusters forming in the constellation of Perseus. By understanding the
properties of these young clusters, which share a common birthplace but occupy different
stages along a cluster's evolutionary path, Dr. Covey and his colleagues are uncovering new
clues that may overturn previous theories of the life and death of young clusters.

Fear and Loving in Your Vagus with Sarina Saturn, PhD, assistant professor of psychology at Oregon State University
When you are stressed out, a wild cascade of events take place in your body and your brain. In moderation, the stress response helps you rise to the occasions to be successful in life. At toxic levels, it can lead to devastating consequences to your emotional and physical well-being. One important portal through which the body and brain communicate with each other during emotional events is the vagus nerve. In this talk, neuropsychologist Sarina Saturn will discuss the neuroanatomy and chemistry underlying both negative and pro-social emotions (such as love, affection and compassion) that can help fight stress and how we can apply this knowledge towards living happier and healthier lives.

Sex in Play: From Dolls to Sports, Sexualized Culture Affects Youth with Elizabeth Daniels
and Aurora Sherman, assistant professors of psychology at OSU-Cascades and OSU,
respectively
Sex may sell everything from magazines to perfume, but the effects of pervasive sexuality in marketing and consumer products go far beyond the cash register. A 2007 American Psychological Association report summarized what psychologists know about how exposure to sexualized images can harm children and teens in terms of depression, lowered aspirations, eating disorders, lack of assertiveness, unhealthy sexual behavior, and dissatisfaction with their own appearance. Doctors Sherman and Daniels are exploring these consequences and suggest it takes media savvy and strong role models to promote healthy development in the face of what the APA calls "the massive exposure to portrayals that sexualize women and girls and teach girls that women are sexual objects."

Firefighters were dispatched to a house fire (1530 SW Skyline Blvd.) at 7:48 AM this morning. Portland Fire Station 16 arrived to a "fully engulfed" garage fire. Engines 4 and 15, along with Truck 3 were on the initial dispatch. Firefighters were able to contain and extinguish the fire, and verify that everyone was out of the house. The cause of the fire was an overheated electrical device and a damage estimate is forthcoming. No one was injured during the incident.

The following tips can help prevent garage fires and their spread:

*If the garage allows access to the attic, make sure a hatch covers this access.
*The floor should be clear of clutter. Loose papers, matches, oily rags, and other potentially flammable items are extremely dangerous if they are strewn about the garage floor.
*Use light bulbs with the proper wattage, and do not overload electrical outlets.
*Tape down all cords and wires so they are not twisted or accidentally yanked.

Marion County Sheriff's Office newest canine, Rolo, was injured this morning while assisting the Salem Police Department with the capture of an auto theft suspect.

Rolo was working with his handler, Deputy Jason Bernards, searching an area on the Chemawa Indian School that was heavily covered by blackberry bushes. The suspect, who was hiding in the bushes, was located by Rolo and taken into custody without contact with the canine.

Unfortunately, in the process of searching through the bushes, Rolo suffered a cut and several scratches just above his left eye. Deputy Bernards transported him to the Aumsville Animal Clinic where he was treated and released to return to duty.

The Marion County Sheriff's Office canine unit consists of seven teams of dogs and handlers; four are patrol teams and three are dedicated completely to narcotics detection. The unit has one German Shepherd, four Belgian Malinois and two Labradors. The canine program, which covers the cost of purchasing, training, feeding and paying veterinarian bills, is entirely supported by citizen donations

On Wednesday May 29, 2013, detectives from the Portland Police Bureau's Gang Enforcement Team arrested 40-year-old Shawn Edward Mahan in connection with a shooting that occurred on Tuesday May 28.

The investigation started when East Precinct officers were called to a residence in the 5900 block of Southeast 83rd Avenue on the report of a self-inflicted gunshot wound. As officers were enroute, the information changed to the victim being shot in the garage during a burglary.

Officers arrived and located the victim, 47-year-old Steven Michael Jones, suffering from a non-life-threatening gunshot wound to the left leg. Jones was transported to a Portland area hospital for treatment.

Officers learned that the victim and suspect, Shawn Mahan, knew each other and that the shooting occurred during a dispute over property at the residence where they both lived.

Based on information that the suspect may be associated with a white supremacy gang, the Gang Enforcement Team responded to continue the investigation.

On Wednesday May 29, at approximately 8:41 p.m., officers located and arrested Mahan while he was walking on Southeast Harold Street, near 66th Avenue. Mahan was armed with a handgun at the time of his arrest.

Mahan was charged with Attempted Murder, Assault in the First Degree, Assault in the Second Degree, and Felon in Possession of a Firearm and booked into the Multnomah County Jail.

The new section of Northeast Fourth Street/First Street, between Northeast 136th Avenue and Hearthwood Boulevard, will open on Thursday, May 30.

The private developer of the former Evergreen Airfield site has transferred ownership and control of the streets, water, sewer, street lights, traffic signal and other infrastructure to the City of Vancouver. With those now under city ownership, Vancouver Public Works crews have now completed the final steps of preparing the new Northeast Fourth Street/First Street corridor for public use.

City crews applied two 25 mph speed markings to the pavement at two locations, one eastbound and the other westbound, near the existing 25 mph speed signs. The markings will provide an additional notification to motorists of current speed limits. City crews also recently energized developer-installed street lights along this stretch of roadway. Finally, to open the way to residents, traffic barricades were removed today to allow vehicles to access the new street.

At this time, the portion of Southeast Olympia Drive from Mill Plain Boulevard to First Street will remain closed until the area develops further. Since its redevelopment, the city has taken measures to ensure this area provides functioning streets, lighting and other improvements that will serve an active commercial and residential site, which is how the former airport is intended to develop in the future.

The city wishes to provide the traveling public with a safe, efficient and convenient route. Thoughtful consideration has been given to maintenance, public safety and neighborhood traffic safety. Public Works staff has been working closely with the surrounding neighborhoods to minimize concerns. New users of this roadway are asked to obey the posted speed limits and be mindful of surrounding neighborhoods.
